Honestly, right now there really isn't much this system adds to the gameplay experience. If you're used to the 3DS XL, it's a downgrade on screen size. I know that the system has faster loading times and will have exclusive games and features in the future, but right now there really isn't any rush to get one.

Right now Pokemon Bank only works some of the time, even though it's back up in Japan. I have it on my 3DS and have experienced this. They may be working on making the service more stable, but hey, it might also come to the west.

I think even if they called Wii U "Cafe" they would have gotten more sales. Consumers are just too confused these days. I bought a Wii U at launch and love it. Even if it doesn't sell that well, as long as Nintendo keeps making great games I'll be happy.
